Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell’s health episodes show “no evidence” of a stroke or seizure disorder, the Capitol physician said Tuesday, but his statement still left questions about the apparent freeze-ups that have drawn concerns about the 81-year-old’s situation.
Yeah, you can really trust the politicians' doctors.
I guess they think we are blind?

Did they try unplugging him and then plugging him back in?

My lawyer brother attended a stockholder meeting where he froze up for a good thirty seconds.

It could be seizures related to the concussion. I know someone who has similar ones. But they also have larger seizures. Which MM might also have and we’re not being told about them.
ReplyDeleteThat bounders the game then?
ReplyDeleteAnd....anyone past the age of 30 who had something go wrong has likely had a bunch of tests thrown at them that didn't find anything. McConnell should update his will....and maybe see the sky pilots about getting right with God. We're told his forgiveness can be absolute, can't say I much feel it.
ReplyDeleteOn one hand, a person's medical conditions are just that: personal. We don't need to know.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, someone with a serious medical condition that impairs judgement, that is in a position of power, who has the ability to make decisions that affect other people's lives, we should be alerted to the condition.
I would hope that people that are around MM (specifically, his staff members), would do what is best for the greater good. If he cannot function completely as he has in the past, then advise him to step aside. But that's not gonna happen. Those around him don't want the gravy train to end.

I think that there is an underlying attempt to point out McConnell's episodes at 81 years old and relate them to Biden's 80 years. They want and are constantly trying to point out Biden's minor slip ups to senility. Mitch has used up his usefulness so it's time to abandon him out on the ice.
